condominium
a single dwelling unit in a multi-unit structure in which each unit is individually owned. The owner holds legal title to his or her unit and owns the common areas (roof, basement, halls, stairs, etc.) and land jointly with other unit owners. An owner may live in his or her condominium, rent it or sell it. Owners pay individual property taxes and may claim tax exemptions just as they would if they owned a free standing, single-family home.
